sporting goods wholesaler and

The well-known Epps firm
hat been built up over the years
with both Canadian -made and
imported spotting goods. Mr.
Epps. said yesterday that goodie
imported from European and
United States sources will cost
the Canadian. buyer up to 75
percent more than the laid
down cost in either Europe or
the United States.
Included in the extra cost is
about 10 percent caused by (the
devaluated Canadian dollar. In
other word e a $100 item now
costs gio in Canadian money.
There has been a 22% per-
cent import duty on guns and
other allied goods, which make
up a good deal of the firm's
busine(ss. With the announced
additional 1.5 percent surcharge;
this increases to 3714 percent
duty, resulting in a cost of $150.
Add to this the 11 percent

"This meatus that many agree
which Canadians want to buy,"
said Mr. Epps, "will now be um.
available to them. They will
just not be able to purchate
them."
Mr. Epps reports that he has
been staving to get some ad-
juatmeat on duties charged on
unfinished gun stocks :afar bar-
rels, which he brings in from
the United States, and employs
skilled gunsmiths: to finish here,
thus providing employment for
Canadians, Duty has 'been. 22%
percent. (Now it will be 37%
percent). "In contrast to this,"
says Mr. Epps, "finished gun
stocks and barrels brought in
from the 'United States are
charged et only 7% percent
duty." (Now this will be 22%
percent,)
"The finished product has
used American labour. Yet the
duty is lower. It seems that the
government it not prepared to
help the small businessmen,"
he concluded.
Mary Hastings Clubs
Enjoy Picnic in Park

tures to use .forr street -lighting
on other main streets. Also
considered was the continuing
failure of the sewage depart-
ment of the MC to be able
to provide sufficient contribu-
tion toward the retirement of
the debenture under which the
plant was installed 16 years ago.
Councillor George Rum,ball on
Monday night suggested that
some adjustment in financing
was necessary. He pointed out
that the rents paid by the sew-
age and water sections of the
PUC ($1,500 each) to the hydro
section (which built the office
and ga.rage) was too !hjgh.
At Tuesd'ay night's regular
commission meeting, decision
was reachecl to investigate this
further. Figured 'at the tapprov-
ed rate of 12 percent of the esti-
mated value of the building,.
$43,000, thein the annual rent
should be about $5,160. Hydro
accepts three fifths of that
cot. Therefore the water and
sewage sections should probably
be paying closer to $1,000 each.
Also at the Tuesday meeting
the comtnission noted that in
future more expense could be
expected in the water depart-
ment. "Some of the pipes in
the aystent haver been undera
ground for 50 years," said
chairman William E. Perdue.

Ellwood Elpps of pp s Sport -

of his comments appear b' an

and unfortunately guns and rif»
les are classified trader the 15
pereent, surcharge class.
Catalogues with prices, al-
ready prepared for circulation
will have to be revised to allow
for changes on many items,
Dudley Pegg of Sherlock -
Manning Piano Co. Ltd. feels
the changes will probably pot
be a major faotor in their oper-
ation, They do import some
meafintished goods from the
United Kingdom and also from
the United Statet. However, he
feels that these iterns probably
will not be ,affected by the in-
creased sercharge. He has yet
to study all of the implications
of the government's action.
Duff Thompson of the Hearn
VVholetale Ltd. and C. H. Epps
Manufaoturing Ltd. firm re-
ports that prices have already
gone up, In the case of plumb-
ing supplies, and heating systean
controls, which are imported,
the surcharge is 20 percent.
Cost then would work out this
way in comparison , with the
period when the Canadian dol-
lar was on a par with the U.S.
dollar:
Consider a heating system
costing $100 in! the United Stara
es. Add on 10 percent to cover
the discounted' Canadian dol-
lar, bringing the cost to $110,
Then add 20 Percent duty
($132), plus ten percent sur-
charge ($145), ples of course
the 11 percent federal sales
tax and three percent Ontario
sales tax ($165).
(Previously a $1.00 item has
been increased by 20 percent
dray to $120; plus 11 percent
federalsales tax and three per -
tent 'Ontario:sales ta:x, toa to-
tal of only $137 approx.)
Mr. Thompson 'points out that
there is some consolation in,
their operation, in that they.
are manufacturers, and the gov-
ernment moves will encourage
more buying in Canada of such
items as are ,available. Some
imports will be pushed out of
line price wise, he eaid, and the
result may be more manufac-
turing in Canada.
John S. Parker of Par -Knit
Hosiery Ltd. expects little extra
expense, except with regard to
one particular pure silk yarn
which is imported from the
United States. He expects that
the increased oast to rthe firm
will be ,absorbed, and not passed
on to customers,
Itt regard to the increased
protection being of assistance
to Parelanirt, Mr. Parker told
the Nerws-Record Jett night that
he did not efarsee any adivant-
age. "Competition in the hos-
iery business is not from out-
side Canada'„ he said. "We're
over -produced right lin Canada
